Back when HLP actually looked like a cool, alive site.

Although, by looking on the front page of the first archived news post of HLP 2.0, that certainly wasn't a cool time for some of us.

I remember v2.0. I don't quite remember how long I was around with it before v3, though. When was the change made form 2 to 3? Man, V2 homepage was awesome.

Damn, I was hoping to see the old hosted project's themes but it looks like they're gone.

can we choose themes for forums, like invisionfree? that way we can have whichever HLP style we want...but only we will see it that way, not every single person.

Wow, good ol' HLP just before I got on. Too bad I didn't hear of Freespace until Dark Hunter introduced me to it. 'Course, my dad wouldn't have let me play it on his machine, but .... wow .... I've had my rig for about four years now. NVM. I could've played it. Dammit Hunter, why didn't you tell me about this, oh, say, three years ago? ..... Anyway, that is fairly nostaglic even for me (i.e. before Inferno: Alliance). Man I wish I could've joined HLP sooner. :(

HLP was around before it was released.  Unfortunately, IW2 didn't get a big of a following as we would have hoped.  I miss the IW2 boards.

Well if you guys would like to start being specific about what features you miss, what graphics you especially liked etc...

...maybe we could do something about it :)

Attempted Suicides ? I was trying to think which themes went with each project yesterday when I was bored.

I remember liking the Tech. Supiriority and Devil & The Deep Blue banners and themes.

Just make sure the themes are customizeable so I can put them back where they belong (for me)... I like this one.  :yes:
